Before You Assemble
Select where you are going to locate your Bowflex Revolution®XP carefully. The best place for your
Bowflex Revolution®XP
is on a hard, level surface. For best results, assemble your the unit in the
location where you intend to use it. Allow a workout area of at least 7’ length x 7’ width (2.1m L x 2.1m
W) of free space for safe operation of the Bowflex Revolution®XP.
Basic Assembly Principles
Here are a few basic tips that will make your assembly of the Bowflex Revolution®XP quick and easy.
By using these principles, you can simplify each process and save yourself extra time and effort.
1. To make the assembly process go faster, gather the pieces you need for each step and thoroughly
read the assembly instructions for that step prior to starting assembly for the step.
2. When tightening a locknut on a bolt, use a combination wrench to grip the locknut and ensure that
it is fastened securely.
3. When attaching two pieces, gently lift and look through the bolt holes to help guide the bolt
through the holes.
4. As a general rule, and for all bolts and nuts on your Bowflex Revolution®XP, turn bolts or nuts
toward the right to tighten and left to loosen. Or you can remember the mnemonic: “Righty tighty,
lefty loosey.

Before Installing the Seat Support Plates (Step 17), make sure the Cables are properly tensioned
according to the following procedure . If there is slack in the Cables, the Support Plate Bolts
could cause interference.
Adjusting Cable Tension
Pay close attention to maintenance of the cable tension. Over time and with heavy use, the
cables are designed to give slightly. Located on the main engine housing is a tension control
knob which allows you to increase the tension in the cables.
Checking for incorrect cable tension is simple.
1. Position the adjustable swing arms in the upper most position.
2. Check to see if clips at end of cable hang down or if they are tight against the pulley.
3. If cables don’t have enough tension, use the tension control knob on the side of the machine to
tighten the cables. (See image).
4. To increase tension, pull tension knob outward and turn the large pulley clockwise. The clip on
the cable should be touching the pulley.
